Dinner at home with Angelique and Aubrey.

Asked Lennoel to bring some food over to M.'s cafe staff.

Night chores.

My favorite time of the day has come again: an evening shower, and then off to bed with Bartleby the Scrivener.

I recall this story, not in the original print but as dramatized for a series of famous American short stories for USG TV. I was working at USICA (United States International Communication Agency), which later changed to USIS (United States Information Service), and then to the Public Affairs Section of the US Department of State. One of my tasks at the time was to invite English and Lit teachers from different universities and encourage them to schedule screenings for their classes at Thomas Jefferson Cultural Center. A tame task compared to everything they would make me do years and years later.
